ANOTHER lovely note! WOW!

ANOTHER lovely note! My heart is so full - our volunteers are the GREATEST!!!!

"Subject: Moving with Imagine Missoula

God Bless the folks who volunteer & head up this program making it so successful! Recently, in April, I was moving from one Senior Living apt to another. Nina was the contact in arranging this one day event. Five wonderful volunteers showed up with a U-haul on time & loaded, unloaded and arranged furniture for me. This was all done with smiles, muscle and generosity for their time & efforts. Last year this helpful group organized & moved my disabled daughter from poverty into security & a clean enviroment. The help they provide, big or small, the smiles and friendly attitudes are a real God send in a time of need. I will never forget this experience & my thanks to all of them."  

A lovely note!

From Helen at Missoula Aging Services:
"Imagine Missoula is a great community partner! Many Senior Corps RSVP Volunteers enjoy lending a helping hand through this action-oriented, civic service initiative. Together, RSVP volunteers and Imagine Missoula make personal, neighbor-to-neighbor connections with Missoulians in need. Their volunteer-based service builds strong neighborhoods. They help people who are homebound or are too frail to move from an apartment or plant a garden alone. They help single parents working to keep a family together. Sometimes they help as mentors, teaching basic home maintenance skills. They work to make home safer. The needs vary but the results help to make Missoula a caring and vibrant community, neighbor-to-neighbor."
THANK YOU to our amazing partners! Please visit Liquid Planet throughout May to support them with their Cuppa Community drink! <3

Team Mow 2013!

Okay folks! Hope you are enjoying the SUN! **

We need some folks to start forming Team Mow 2013 - the group of volunteers
who regularly mow for folks in need. Interested? You can start with one of

the folks below (and also just a one time mow would be great **

So we have three requests for one time (or ongoing!) mowing from three
folks - one is a veteran, one is a hospice patient, and one is Sara, an
elderly woman who just needs a helping hand. Our veteran friend has no
mower or edger, so would need you to bring yours.
Can you help out?
Let me know!

Gardening With Seniors!

The sweet folks at Glengarra Senior Housing need a team to get their shared garden up and running this SATURDAY! It is a load of fun to help them - and this year there is a twist - they also need folks to partner with residents there to maintain their plots. If you would like to help this once on Saturday, or meet and connect with a resident and work side by side with them this summer (or both!) Let me know asap! (this is a great chance for families to help out!) Plus the weather report is very good for Saturday!
Let me know!
